CLEVELAND (WJW) — A 19-year-old has been indicted for sexually assaulting a mother and daughter in East Cleveland.
According to the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office, Doyral Wynn, 19, is accused of raping and robbing a 37-year-old mother and her 19-year-old daughter as the two were walking home from a local store.

The incident took place in May 2024 on Hayden Avenue.
Officials said, the mother and daughter were approached by an unknown man dressed in all black and wearing a mask. He allegedly pulled out a firearm and ordered them to put everything they were carrying into a bag. Officials said the women complied but were then ordered into a nearby field, forced to the ground, and sexually assaulted at gunpoint.
After the assaults, officials said, Wynn fired two shots into the air and told the victims they were free to go. According to a press release, two shell casings were later recovered from the scene, which eventually led investigators to identify Wynn as a suspect.

According to the prosecutor's office, about ten months later, in March 2025, a 34-year-old male was driving with his wife, 31, and their two children, 7 and 3, on East 133rd Street in Cleveland, when a black Jeep Cherokee began to follow their vehicle and fired two shots. No one was hurt, and officials said the 34-year-old was able to identify Wynn as the suspected shooter.
A shell casing was recovered from the scene and later determined to match the two shell casings recovered from the sexual assault scene, said officials.
'Doyral Wynn's violence knows no boundaries,' said Prosecutor Michael C. O'Malley. 'He is capable of harming anyone at any time.'
In April, a search warrant was executed at a residence where Wynn was staying near East 111th Street and Ashbury Avenue in Cleveland. Officials said they discovered seven firearms in a safe with Wynn's Social Security card.
'On April 18, 2025, Doyral Wynn was arrested by the Cleveland Division of Police (CDP) and was found to be in possession of a firearm that matched the casings recovered from the sexual assault scene and the shooting scene. The firearm had been reported stolen in 2023,' read a press release.
On July 1, 2025, Doyral Wynn was indicted on the following charges:
Seven counts of Rape
Four counts of Kidnapping
One count of Aggravated Robbery
Four counts of Felonious Assault
15 counts of Having Weapons While Under Disability
Five counts of Discharge of Firearms On or Near a Prohibited Premise (1 – F3, 4 – M4)
Two counts of Gross Sexual Imposition
Two counts of Improperly Handling Firearms in a Motor Vehicle
One count of Receiving Stolen Property
One count of Possessing Criminal Tools
One count of Falsification

Who is Quornelius Radford? What we know about the Fort Stewart shooting suspect

The soldier accused of shooting five other service members at Fort Stewart, Georgia, on Wednesday is a 28-year-old sergeant who had been assigned to the base for around three years, officials said. Quornelius Radford, an automated logistics sergeant from Jacksonville, Florida, is accused of opening fire shortly before 11 a.m. Investigators were trying to determine a motive. the Fort Stewart-Hunter Army Airfield commander, Brig. Gen. John Lubas, said that the suspect used a personal handgun and that the shooting involved people he worked with. 'What we know is this soldier, the shooting occurred at the soldier's place of work. It did involve his co-workers,' Lubas told reporters Wednesday. 'We're still not certain about the motivations.' The five wounded soldiers are expected to recover, Lubas said. They were hospitalized and were stable Wednesday afternoon. Suspect hasn't deployed to combat Radford was a logistics sergeant assigned to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, which is based at Fort Stewart. He joined the Army as an automated logistical specialist in January 2018 and has been assigned to Fort Stewart since 2022, the military said. Radford has not been deployed to combat. He was assigned to one of the sustainment units in the 2nd Brigade. Automated logistics in the Army involves overseeing supplies and equipment and maintenance of supply data and records, according to the Army's website. Shooter used personal handgun, was tackled Radford used a personal handgun, not a military weapon, Lubas said. Soldiers in the area who saw the shooting "immediately and without hesitation" acted to tackle the shooter and subdue him until law enforcement arrives, Lubas said. "These soldiers, without a doubt, prevented further casualties," he said. Part of the investigation will determine how the gun entered the base, Lubas said. "As you can see here at our gates, we have armed guards in protective equipment," he said. "This one's a bit difficult, and we're going to have to determine how he was able to get a handgun to his place of duty." No known discipline; DUI was unknown Lubas said that he was not aware of any military disciplinary actions concerning Radford, but he said it was early in the investigation. A May arrest and booking report from the Liberty County, Georgia, Sheriff's Office shows a Quornelius Radford was arrested on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol. Lubas said the military believes Radford was "arrested locally for a DUI that was unknown to his chain of command until the event occurred and we started looking into the law enforcement databases." Fort Stewart is in Liberty County. The sheriff's report says the arresting agency in that case was the Georgia Highway Patrol post in Hinesville. It lists an arrest time of 1:02 a.m. May 18. The charges were listed as obedience to a traffic control device required and DUI. The record shows he was released after he posted a bond set at $1,818. Defense secretary calls shooting 'cowardly' Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called the shooting "cowardly" and said there would be "swift justice." He expressed thanks that all five soldiers were expected to survive. "We owe profound gratitude to the law enforcement heroes who charged into danger," Hegseth wrote on X. "Swift justice will be brought to the perpetrator and anyone else found to be involved." Lubas said Radford was in pretrial confinement Wednesday awaiting a charging decision by the Office of the Special Trial Counsel. He has been interviewed by the Army Criminal Investigation Division, Lubas said. President Donald Trump said he was praying for the victims. He said two of wounded were "very, very seriously hurt." "The entire nation is praying for the victims and their families, and hopefully they'll fully recover," Trump said. "We're not going to forget what happened," Trump said. "We're going to take very good care of the person who did this. Horrible person." Phone numbers for any relatives of Radford's in Jacksonville could not immediately be found in a search of public records Wednesday. Fort Stewart is about 40 miles southwest of Savannah.

The two faces of JD: Once a Jeffrey Epstein truther, Veep Vance becomes Trump and Bondi's latest spin doctor

Vice President J.D. Vance hit the campaign trail in Ohio on Monday, as he sought to help his boss and the GOP that is lined up behind him sell the 'big, beautiful' budget reconciliation package to midterm voters. Instead, the president's Twitter-happy running mate found himself answering questions about Jeffrey Epstein — and in a generally unfamiliar role: battling speculation on the right instead of fueling it. The vice president, who less than three weeks before the 2024 election declared that 'we' should release the 'Epstein list,' has a new message, as his colleagues now insist that the list isn't real: 'Donald J. Trump, I'm telling you, he's got nothing to hide.' Vance was in a Democratic-held district in Canton, Ohio — about three hours north of his hometown of Middletown — on Monday as the president and his party try and turn their focus towards next year's midterms. But they're the only ones whose attention has shifted — DC's focus remains firmly on Jeffrey Epstein and the growing uproar around the White House's handling of the so-called 'client list' or 'Epstein files.' And if Monday's road trip is any indicator, so has much of America's. After he concluded his remarks, the vice president hosted a press conference in front of his supporters, who watched up close as Vance evolved from conspiracy theorist to spin doctor in real time. 'The president has directed the attorney general to release all credible information and, frankly, to go and find additional credible information related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. He's been incredibly transparent about that stuff, but some of that stuff takes time,' said Vance, who went on to accuse the media of being uninterested in the story during the Biden administration. There are a few problems here. For one, that it isn't true. Vance's reference to Trump directing Attorney General Pam Bondi to 'release all credible information' is just a flat-out falsehood. The Justice Department stated explicitly — and continues to state — that it won't release further documents from its own trove at all. The FBI and DOJ's joint memo was pretty clear: 'we found no basis to revisit the disclosure of those materials'. What Bondi did authorize was a motion in court seeking for a judge to allow the release of grand jury transcripts to the public. Her agency made no attempts to justify the motion beyond satisfying public speculation, and it was denied — a foregone conclusion for a strategy that DOJ attorneys acknowledged in their own filings was a long shot. Republican leadership, meanwhile, is talking out of both sides of its mouth. Speaker Mike Johnson, remarking Sunday on NBC's Meet the Press, positioned himself as pro-transparency while simultaneously coming out against a bipartisan resolution to force the Justice Department to release the files, with redactions for victim information and examples of pornography. It's also unclear what Vance meant when he said that the administration's efforts to make this story go away would 'take time.' Bondi's motion is already denied; she's made no indication that her efforts to see grand jury transcripts released will continue. Those transcripts likely also hardly scratch the surface of 'all credible information' the government has on the subject of Epstein. The Justice Department explained in July that further files from the investigation would not be released. The agency also declared that a list of the convicted pedophile's alleged co-conspirators did not exist, and that investigators "did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties." So what is the administration actually still doing? Unclear. Vance wouldn't say. But he was clear on one thing: they're doing it! 'Donald J. Trump is asking his Department of Justice to show full transparency, and somehow that's a criticism of Donald J. Trump and not Barack Obama and George W. Bush,' Vance griped on Monday. Having now passed the mammoth reconciliation package, the Republican Party is mindful of one political reality: that even with Trump's success in bullying backbenchers into line, the GOP has used up the bulk of its political capital. The chances of passing another piece of legislation through the Senate are slim, given the number of Democrats the party would need on their side to break a filibuster. Even a second reconciliation package seems off the table given the level of deficit spending Republicans budget hawks just had to swallow the first time around. But the vice president and the rest of his party are in a tough spot. Aside from an extension of existing tax cuts, the main provision of the 'big, beautiful bill' was a massive surge in funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement — a tricky sell for the Republican Party given that polling on the issue of immigration is quickly turning against the president thanks to highly public raids on farms and other businesses. Funding that provision and the extension of the tax cuts is the largest cut to Medicaid spending in history, driven by new work requirements expected to lead many to lose their coverage. Those Medicaid cuts are Democrats' favorite topic when discussing the second-term Trump agenda. Vance, as a result, is stuck arguing the nuts and bolts, pushing the GOP line that Democrats opposed extending tax cuts during an affordability crisis. Attacking Rep. Emilia Sykes, whose district he visited, Vance said on Monday: 'You know why she's not here today? Because she's not celebrating no taxes on tips. She's not celebrating no taxes on overtime…she fought us every step of the way.' As he spoke, however, 'Epstein Island' was the No. 1 trending term on Twitter/X, thanks to Trump's awkward quip Monday morning that he never 'had the privilege' of visiting the island where many of Epstein's crimes involving underaged girls were alleged to have taken place. It's hard to say yet how much the Epstein issue will affect the midterms — if at all. But with Donald Trump personally making the situation worse by throwing things against the wall to see what sticks, it will likely be up to Vance and the president's other allies to help dig him out of this hole.

Fort Stewart shooting suspect in custody, 5 soldiers wounded, officials say

Five soldiers were wounded when an active-duty sergeant opened fire on his coworkers Wednesday at Fort Stewart in Georgia, officials said. The suspected shooter, who was taken into custody, used his personal weapon in the shooting, Brig. Gen. John Lubas, the fort's commander, told reporters. Officials identified the suspect as Quornelius Radford, a 28-year-old automated logistics sergeant with the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team. Officials had said the shooting happened in the combat team's area at the fort. The suspect joined the Army in January 2018 as an automated logistical specialist and is from Jacksonville, Florida, an Army spokesperson told CBS News. He hadn't previously been deployed to combat, Lubas said. The wounded soldiers were all in stable condition and expected to recover, Lubas said during an afternoon news conference. Three of the five soldiers required surgery. In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, the soldiers were treated on site and taken to an Army hospital. Two of the soldiers were then moved to a hospital in Savannah, Georgia, for additional care. None of the soldiers have been identified publicly. Lubas said the suspect was being held in pretrial confinement and has been interviewed by the Army's Criminal Investigative Division, a federal law enforcement agency. An investigation into the shooting was ongoing. Investigators weren't sure about the motivation for the shooting, Lubas said. He said the suspect had been arrested for DUI, which wasn't previously known to the suspect's chain of command. The gun used in the shooting was a personal weapon, not a military weapon, Lubas said. During the shooting, soldiers in the area "immediately and without hesitation" tackled the suspect and subdued him, Lubas said. "These soldiers, without a doubt, prevented further casualties," he said. Lubas said there wasn't any reason to believe that the shooting was related to terrorism or extremist beliefs and there wasn't any threat to the local community. Law enforcement officers responded to initial reports of the shooting at 10:56 a.m. local time, officials said. The fort was locked down at 11:04 a.m., and the suspect was in custody at 11:35 a.m., officials said. Officials said on social media that the fort was "all clear" just before 2 p.m. President Trump has been briefed on the shooting and the White House is monitoring the situation, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on social media. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has also been briefed on the shooting, a defense official said. "The Army Criminal Investigation Division is on site to ensure that the perpetrator of this atrocity, which is exactly what it is, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," Mr. Trump said in the Oval Office Wednesday. "The entire nation is praying for the victims and their families, and hopefully, they'll fully recover, and we can put this chapter behind us, but we're not going to forget what happened." "Today, a cowardly shooting at Fort Stewart left five brave Soldiers wounded," Hegseth said in a social media post. "Praise God they are all in stable condition. Our prayers are with them, their families, and the entire Fort Stewart community in the aftermath of this attack. We owe profound gratitude to the law enforcement heroes who charged into danger. Swift justice will be brought to the perpetrator and anyone else found to be involved." Fort Stewart is the largest Army installation east of the Mississippi River, covering nearly 280,000 acres, according to the Defense Department. In the 2020 census, the fort had an estimated population of 8,821 people. Outside the fort's front gate is the small town of Hinesville, Georgia, located about 40 miles southwest of Savannah near the state's Atlantic coast. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said in a social media post that he is in contact with responding law enforcement. "We are keeping the victims, their families, and all those who answer the call to serve in our hearts and prayers, and we ask that Georgians everywhere do the same," Kemp Watson and Jared Ochacher contributed to this report.
